The Bulgarian Academy of Sciences is the legal successor of the Bulgarian Literary Society, founded on October 12, 1869 in the Romanian city of Brăila. This was one of the peak events during the Bulgarian Renaissance, along with the creation of the first Bulgarian community center in Svishtov and the establishment of the Bulgarian Exarchate. With the help of its long-time chairman – politician and public figure Ivan Evstratiev Geshov, the Bulgarian Literary Society became an independent and autonomous institution. In 1911, it was renamed the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and the first law for it was adopted.
